WWI Aircraft Poster

Aircraft in the form of balloons and Zeppelin were used early in World War I for reconnaissance, and then as bombers, but their stationary positions made them targets and ineffectual. Then the new innovations of novelty sports type planes developed in the ten years since the Wright Brothers first powered flight were pressed into service. Serious aerial combat evolved when the pilots started shooting at one another with hand guns.

In Flander's Field Art Print

In Flanders Fields
by Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918)
Canadian Army

IN FLANDERS FIELDS the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
